From Miss World to The Matrix, Max Factor and beyond, Priyanka Chopra Jonas has come a long way
As well as her gruelling filming schedule, in 2021 Priyanka launched a haircare line, Anomaly, available in the US and published her memoir, Unfinished, now a New York Times best-seller.and as one half of an A-list couple, it’s easy to forget the 39-year-old has been in the business for over two decades.
At just 18, Priyanka won Miss World 2000 under the bright lights of London’s Millennium Dome. ‘There were 96 of us getting ready backstage,’ she recalls. ‘I was curling my hair but I got jostled and burnt my forehead. I put so much make-up on that injury and pulled my hair over it to hide it,’ she laughs, ‘it was terrifying, but when I walked out I put my armour on. I knew I had to appear confident.’Over 20 years on and Priyanka channels the same energy.
Heritage has always been important to her. Born in India, she moved to the US aged 12, where she lived for three years with extended family. In Unfinished, Priyanka reveals the racially-charged bullying she experienced, her classmates shouting insults as she walked the school corridors. She returned to India to finish her education, where her confidence grew. ‘I was a real ’90s kid – loose jeans, puffer jackets, dark lip liner with a frosty mouth, really thin eyebrows and lots of hair.
India’s fifth Miss World title shot her to near instantaneous Bollywood fame. And after 10 years, Priyanka was a bona fide Bollywood star before Hollywood beckoned. Though she made her transition to Hollywood look easy – first playing an FBI agent in series Quantico in 2015 and picking up two People’s Choice Awards – she encountered cultural challenges. ‘Generally, Indian movies have a lot more heart and emotion, they’re driven by feelings and music,’ she says.
As she approaches her milestone birthday, Priyanka has definitely hit her stride. ‘If I could tell my younger self anything,’ she says, ‘it would be to not fret about things that are out of my control.’Priyanka Chopra Jonas' Favourite Beauty Products - Grazia 2022'This is my go-to scent at the moment.
